Hi all,
Could you please help check the paragraph below? Thanks!
The function of the Legislative Council (“LegCo”) in Hong Kong is similar to that of the U.K. parliament. However, not every member of the LegCo is directly elected by the general public. Around one-third of the members of the LegCo belong to the so called functional constituency. Such LegCo members are elected by members of different sectors of the society. For example, the LegCo member who represents the business sector can only be elected by the senior management of certain companies or corporations in Hong Kong. That is why people call the election of functional constituency members is a small circle election.
